Saw this earlier today, and thought it was really interesting. The watch brand Rudis Sylva, and
Mika Rissanen, who is one of their watchmakers specializing in different grand complications
has come up with a new kind of patented movement. It "features a system with two mechanically
interlinked balances driven by a single escapement." As a result, the effect of gravity is somehow
eliminated because the "energy of the balance springs are contantly opposed, enabling instaneous
average correction in the verticle position." Don't really understand any of this, but it sounds very
impressive, and thought it was really cool even if we may never have one.
